Look at you, defending the anti-semite.
As I wrote to her to explain, I don't really care what she thinks it means. She also knows what that phrase means to Israelis. And while you can try to explain away her actions by posting the link above where she tries to white-wash a particular phrase, you're not going to get away with that BS. Context is key, and here's the context:

She wants to make comments like that - and it is by far not the first time ulgy anti-semitic comments have come out of her mouth - within days of when Hamas killed, butchered and raped men women and children in some of the most brutal ways imaginable. She wants to make that case that the loss of life on both sides is regretable, but in the same breath blame Isreal for Hamas' attack. Hamas' actions were a response to the Isreali "blockade" and/or "occupation".
Nope, sorry, it doesn't wash, and she needs to have the voters boot her out because of it.
"peace from the Jordan to the sea" my ass.
